None of them are "silent". Period.

It's a waste of money to try and use a suppressor on a super-sonic round.......

I have a CZ-52 in 7.26 x 25mm...and it's a super-sonic round. Loud as heck!!!

Not to mention the cost for any suppressor is a joke................unless it's homemade. : )

Have you ever fired a suppressed rifle?

And if it's a complete waste? Why does the Fed Gov buy supressors for their .308s?

Because it DOES make it quieter. In fact, quiet enough to keep from causing lasting damage.

The crack from a round going Mach+ is much less damaging than the powder going off.

Just looked it up in the book. All my .22 LR Winchester ammo is super-sonic.

Supersonic is 1100 fps, at sea level, standard atmosphere.

You gotta love the fireball the CZ 52 produces LOL
I wish I had bought a threaded barrel though when they were available so I could spin on a flash suppressor.
